GBH has picked up some fluff awards, but got snubbed right there.

Oh, man, I can understand you, man, but this is not exactly the place to get empathy.

Whiplash is in the Adapted Screenplay category because it was adapted from a short film made with the identical same screenplay it was nominated for.

That was a great speech, BTW

So the next time you're feeling suicidal, remember - eventually you'll get an Oscar and it will make everything in your life better. Great lesson.

Oh, and Robin Williams says Hi.

I'm waiting for someone to start talking about suicide when the music starts up (just to stop the walkoff music) and then promptly return to thanking people.

Is that what he's had in his mouth all night? Very distracting.

And is that the woman with him? His mom?!

Oh, and @ABC? Just drop all commercials after 11:30 PM, you greedy bastards!

Serves them right. Only DVR rookies don't pad the Oscars.

Why don't they start at 8:00 so it doesn't go on so insanely late?

My dvr suggests adding an extra 30 when I set a recording for a live event.

I don't have a DVR (I also still don't have direct deposit), but wouldn't people pad the sht out of these things?

Ha! I like that a movie that took the director 12 years to make was beaten by a film the director tried to make in a single shot.

Not that I care much about the actual winners/losers... but I have no problem with Birdman guy winning Best Director. He did a masterful job I thought. Glad Wes Anderson didn't win - he's just been recycling the same stuff every movie.
